Hi Steve,

thanks for pointing out this issue and sorry for the link breakage (caused by an incomplete web server migration). The link should be working again.

Regards,
Thilo

Hi,

The link: http://thilo.ginkel.com/archive/sms-gammu2android-0.1.tar.gz

Is dead again. I know its in gammu now but I am a script novice so I am using wammu.

Please re-up the link so I can get the file?
Thank you so much!

Steve

Hey!
I saved all the messeges from nokia and installed the ‘sms backup and restore” application on my galaxy s. Meanwhile I gathered quite a few important messeges on the new phone and I wanted to ask if the ‘restore’ option means that the existing sms (from the same contacts) will be deleted?
Thanks in advance :*

Thanks a lot! I struggled with this problem for a while and tried hundred of programs – and your script solved it!

@Manaf: as suggested by Stig Inge (comment 2010/06/27) you have to replace

if (/^Sent = (.*)/) {

with

if (/^DateTime = (.*)/) {

at the beginning of the script.

Worked fine for me.

Hello.

I am using wammu 0.33(based on gammu 1.27.92) and your python script misses the date and other stuff in the created xml file!

Can you upgrade your script?
Thanks

This simple procedure worked for me on Nokia E65 to Android on HTC legend. No programming etc needed!
